AT&T

AT&T touts itself as having 99% US coverage. First I had cell coverage (April 2011); then in April 2012 none for several months; than coverage resumed until September 2014. Any coverage has always been spotty i.e. had to move around house, sometimes even go outside. Now again (10 / 2014) have none. I am able to get cell coverage with my phone almost everywhere else in continental US. Am aware that my little corner of the AT&T world is not actually on the AT&T cell coverage map. If not: 1) why did I have it, albeit imperfectly, for almost 4 years ? 2) why is there no coverage in this very limited and non-contiguous area in Vermont ? This is criminal.

I feel like a don't have a phone at all. We usually get between No Service and 2 bars of signal. It is horrible. The worst part is that we are in monthly plan and have to pay a huge amount of money to cancel our plans even though the issues we are having are not under our control. My husband has complained already and they did not solve our problem. We are wasting a lot of money.

I have lived in THREE houses in Lebanon and West Lebanon. If I was on Fire friends, AT&T can't give me anything but "no reception." I have to either go to a friend who has WiFi in their home... or use the $12.88 TracFone that never has fewer than 4 bars and makes / receives calls perfectly 24 / 7 / 365. AT&T is a joke, and making my $3,000 of iPhones and iPads look like worthless hunks of aluminum.

Very poor phone and broadband reception. Calls and data connection randomly drop (or can't get any reception at all) inside and outside. Time of day doesn't matter. Best reception (average 3 bars and 3G.) at second floor window facing east with clear view of Hanover NH.

This is NOT a tiny town - maybe area population of 100,000 people. AT&T reception is either 1 bar... or NONE! If my house was on fire, or my husband had a heart attack, we couldn't even reach 911. Terrible! AT&T should really be ashamed! Put up a Tower of your own, AT&T!

Must go to the top of the hill past the Canaan Center store where it becomes Canaan St. to get any reception at all. Daughter comes to visit from MA. and must walk up to top of hill to use phone. I don't own a cellphone, as we have no reception here.

No signal. Not even roaming! Sometimes by the store you can catch something quickly. If you to toward the elementary school, signal seems to exist, but if you go down the hill toward the funeral home, there's not much hope for any cell signal at all.

Switched from Verizon to AT&T and am very pleased. Verizon can't / won't improve coverage in Vt. due to FCC regulations. AT&T has been improving their infrastructure since 2008. I had 0-1 bar with Verizon at home and couldn't use phone at all, 3-4 steady bars on wifes iphone, my HTC is usually 1 bar less. Good coverage in Hartland, Windsor, Woodstock, Quechee and upper valley. Excellent coverage in Brownsville with 3g. Interstate 91 has a few more dead spots than Verizon but overall verygood. Both carriers aren't perfect but it's more due too topography of Vt. AT&T is the best in my area since I'm now able to use my phone at home.

Only one bar from the house (if correctly stationed within), but other providers' mobile phones get NONE! The area beyond the Crooked Half-Mile is virtually a dead zone. If within the Comcast cable range, would-be users are advised to purchase a smartphone capable of linking to broadband for home use.
